Description
More Information
The MG08SCA14TE is a high-performance hard drive from Toshiba with a capacity of 14 terabytes and a form factor of 3.5 inches. It uses the SAS interface and has a data transfer rate of 12 gigabits per second and it spins at 7200 RPM. This drive is likely intended for use in enterprise storage systems and servers where high-capacity and high-performance are a key requirement.
This drive is part of the MG08 series of enterprise-class hard drives from Toshiba, which are designed to deliver high-reliability and performance for demanding data center and enterprise environments. The SAS interface provides a higher data transfer rate and better performance than SATA, and it also allows for more advanced features such as dual-port connectivity and support for SAS expanders.
The 7200 RPM spin speed allows for faster data access, which can result in better performance for applications such as databases, online transaction processing (OLTP), and big data analytics. Additionally, the high-capacity of 14TB allows for storing large amounts of data, which can be useful for large-scale data storage and backup.
It features advanced technologies such as Error Correction Code (ECC) and Rotational Vibration (RV) sensors that help to ensure data integrity and reduce the risk of drive failure. Additionally, the drive is built to meet or exceed industry standards, such as the Telcordia SR-332 and the F.I.P.S. 140-2 Level 2 standards.
It’s recommended to consult the technical documentation or consult with the manufacturer or vendor of the system to confirm compatibility and to understand the drive’s full feature set. Also, it’s important to have a SAS host bus adapter, or a SAS expander in the system that supports 12GB/s speed.
High Reliability
The Toshiba MG08SCA14TE is a high-reliability hard drive with a capacity of 14 terabytes, a form factor of 3.5 inches, and a SAS interface with a data transfer rate of 12 gigabits per second. It spins at 7200 RPM, and it is intended for use in enterprise storage systems and servers where high reliability is a key requirement.
Toshiba’s enterprise hard drives are built to withstand the rigors of 24/7 operation in data centers, featuring advanced technologies that help to ensure data integrity and reduce the risk of drive failure. Some of these features include:
Rotational Vibration (RV) sensors for improved drive performance in multi-drive environments.
Advanced Format technology for increased data integrity and reliability.
High-reliability design that includes a durable actuator, dual-stage head positioning, and a high-reliability spindle motor.
This also features a SAS interface which provides a higher data transfer rate and better performance than SATA, and it also allows for more advanced features such as dual-port connectivity and support for SAS expanders. This makes it more suitable for high-availability systems, where the drive can be accessed by multiple controllers for redundancy.
It is designed to meet or exceed the requirements of various industry standards, such as the Telcordia SR-332 and the F.I.P.S. 140-2 Level 2 standards.
Wide Compatibility
The Toshiba MG08SCA14TE 14TB hard drive with a 7200 RPM spin speed and a SAS interface with a data transfer rate of 12 gigabits per second is generally compatible with most systems that support the SAS interface and have a 3.5-inch drive bay. This includes most servers, storage arrays and servers that use SAS hard drives. It is also compatible with external hard drive enclosures that support SAS and 3.5-inch drives.
However, it’s important to check for any specific compatibility requirements before purchasing the drive. Some systems may have different power or data connector requirements, or may have limitations on the maximum capacity of the hard drive that they can support. Additionally, the high-performance of this drive may require additional cooling or power supply, so it’s important to check if the system has the necessary resources to handle it.
It’s also important to check the system firmware and BIOS compatibility, and if the device’s operating system has the necessary drivers to support the drive.
It’s recommended to consult the technical documentation or consult with the manufacturer or vendor of the system to confirm compatibility. It’s also important to have a SAS host bus adapter, or a SAS expander in the system that supports 12GB/s speed.
